Next up in my continuing series on the absolutely crazy things people will pay money for Maine Adult Education is…. LEGOS.
Yes, LEGOS.
Those annoying little plastic toy pieces we’ve all stepped on and paid the price.
And while there have been some other ridiculous classes…
You’re never too old to learn…. Spoons.
You’re never to old to learn…. Potatoes.
You’re never too old to learn…. Ukulele
You’re never too old to learn…. Chakra Toning.
You’re never too old to learn…. Mindfulness.
You’re never to old to learn…. Tin Cans.
You’re never too old to learn…. Knotweed Flutes.
You’re never too old to learn… Succulent Picture Frame.
This one, and it’s how the hell can we make this nonsense sound like a legitimate college course description really made me laugh.

Okay, there’s that.

This is Serious Play!
Taught by a Serious Play facilitator!

But maybe times have changed.
